Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5596:
-------------------------------------
It would be great if we did that, and somehow fit numerictokenstream to be more
"ordinary" in the analysis chain, such that e.g. the queryparser getRangeQuery
could just do the right thing out of box...
> Support for index/search large numeric field

> Currently if an number is larger than Long.MAX_VALUE, we can't index/search
> that in lucene as a number. For example, IPv6 address is an 128 bit number,
> so we can't index that as a numeric field and do numeric range query etc.
> It would be good to support BigInteger / BigDecimal
> I've tried use BigInteger for IPv6 in Elasticsearch and that works fine, but
> there are still lots of things to do
